Vrbata has always had somewhat decent numbers (never really had less than 15 goals/year with Colorado/Chicago). I guess his explosion with Phoenix is a by-product of him being one of he few people on that team who can actually score goals.

Didn't help him on Tampa when they sucked.

It's one of those things where he found a good situation and system to produce.

Vrbata is a good counter puncher. PHX's systems are perfect for him. Plus, he seems like a guy that doesn't do well with a lot of media attention, so the desert is perfect for him.
